Posting it on your Google+ profile will register as a +1 on the button.

I just played around with it a bit, and it seems google now shows a +1 button on their search results. I guess I can force the page to show up in a search result to +1 it.

Posting on my google+ as a way to +1 a page is a terrible user experience.

Edit: I can't find a way to view all of my +1s. Google needs to hire some new UX people.

Edit2: I found it. You have to go to your profile and there is a +1's tab/button that will show all of your +1s. Oddly 'search plus your world' seems broken. I have this page +1'd

If I search for 'north carolina sea level rise' I would expect my +1 to show up. It doesn't.

No normal human being will take the time to figure out this maze of google spaghetti

thanks, but it doesn't work very well. Right now everytime I try to +1 a page it says "loading" for a while, then "can't +1 this page". I think it's because I have multiple google accounts and google apps accounts, and chrome is logged in to one of them while i'm logged in to a different one in a tab.

I can make my way through this maze, but I have no idea how they expect normal people to put all these pieces together.

I only have one account and I've had a very pleasant time using this plugin. It's typically the only way that I will +1 a page because it's so simple.

believe me, I want it to work well. That's the source of my frustration :)

You can view all of your +1's from your Google+ profile page. Profile > +1's.
